Man I had a hard time finding a straight 7 twist and it’s not as long as I wanted.. it’s gonna be 26.5” I really wanted a 30”buy 4 grove. 6.8 t
Looks good! Let us know how she shoot’s.Here she is all done, defiance with a nitride bolt, Bartlien 7 twist 26.5” long
Just got it today, hopefully I’ll get to shoot it before to long.
Looks good! Was going try the 80.5’s myself but stumbled across a box of 60’s I forgot I had and they shot awesome!! I don’t need the great bc as 95% of my 223 will be 300 yards with the occasion 500 yard shoots.Shoot decent for just grabbing a couple boxes off the top of the safe with no load development..
My wife did an order with Northland Shooters Supply and got everything she wanted from them. Shilen select match 223 Remington with 1:8 twist 26 inch barrel, KRG bravo stock and trigger tech trigger. Put it all together and this is what she looks like.
You should be happy with that.thanks guys, I think I’m going to do the 1:7 Bartlien in a sendero profile. Not sure what reamer my gun smith has.

I’ll have to measure a fired case next trip, not really sure I do remember using a .248 bushing though and that seems to be giving .002 neck tension.. can’t remember what my loaded round measuresDo you by any chance have a tightish neck?
My current 0.250" neck barrel shot about like that when the necks were 0.003" clear, but then I reduced the neck clearance to about 0.0005" and the groups shrank to about 0.180 ish.
I had to dig around to find brass with necks thick enough to get so little clearance with a 0.250 neck. Ended up using Lapua.
My next barrel will have a smaller neck and a tighter throat. Just waiting for Manson to ship, but it might be a while with the truckers blocking the bridge between Windsor and Detroit. Good for them though... standing up against the man.
If you use brass with thick necks (like Lapua) you could neck turn and remain larger than .247.I’ll have to measure a fired case next trip, not really sure I do remember using a .248 bushing though and that seems to be giving .002 neck tension.. can’t remember what my loaded round measures
I was think about neck turning, but my smallest bushing is a 247 and I don’t wanna buy any more bushings
